Warehouse lighting in Farcet
What we do in Farcet: lED high bays and aisle lighting for warehouses and distribution sites. Aisle-by-aisle presence sensing works well in Farcet warehouses where some aisles are only visited a few times an hour.
Local warehouse lighting in Farcet
Warehouses around Farcet often still run 400 W metal halide or sodium high bays that take minutes to strike up. LED comes on instantly and usually uses less than half the power.
In Farcet distribution units the key is the optic. Narrow-beam fittings down each aisle put light on the rack faces where pickers need it, rather than on the top of the racking.
For Farcet premises we plan works around opening hours, deliveries and shared access, which matters on mixed-use estates and high streets.
